Net Worthless is a turn-based strategy game — except you're not building an empire, just running one thoroughly average life. One turn — one month.
It all starts with picking a character, and it's not just a skin. Each archetype is its own game,
with its own starting conditions, goal, and deadline.
One wants to make a first fortune; another, to buy out the company that laid him off;
a third, to become a world-famous actress. Different starts, different ceilings, different paths.
You don't control your character in real time. You plan how the next 30 days play out:
hours of sleep, hours at the desk job, hours at the gym, hours studying, hours doomscrolling.
But Lady Luck, as we all know, has her own plans for your plans.
You'll have to deal with all the joys of adult life:
Inflation that eats your nest egg faster than you can refill it.
Loans, payday loans, and debt collectors who have your number on speed dial.
A market that never stops storming.
The choice: take a side gig and burn out completely, or save your sanity and skip lunch.
The game hands you systems and rules, but it won't tell you what's right.
Spoiler: there's no single right way. Slog away at three jobs, play the market, or just coast.
Every action is a trade: you swap time for money, money for health, health for sanity. Nothing grows for free.
Nobody holds your hand or flags the best move.
For anyone who doesn't like save-scumming. The game saves once, at the end of the month, after every event has resolved. One slot, no backups.
Reloading won't undo a bad deal or a sudden illness. You live with what you chose.
This isn't difficulty for its own sake. It's honesty.
Fully offline. No launchers, no server tethers, no "always online."
Zero telemetry. The game collects nothing about you and sends nothing anywhere. Want to share your story? Leave a review or make a video, we're all for it. But it's your call.
Tiny footprint, runs on minimal specs. It'll even run on a potato.
Satire aimed at crypto bros, info-grifters, hustle culture, and the impossibility
of buying a home in the 2020s, wrapped around a merciless economy.
